To be honest, whilst it's great to meet up with you guys, what's really putting me off this time is the bingo endgame. Like it doesn't actually matter whether you make the FT with ~200k because it becomes pot luck. What Nick would be better off doing is flipping the levels upside, with shorter levels at the beginning and longer levels towards the end.

Yeah I agree, to be honest. I don't think he'll listen, though. Why don't we just arrange a casino day somewhere?

I do like the pub games in southampton, but I agree the structure could be improved a lot if the levels didn't increase so rapidly toward the end. When you reach the final table as chipleader yet still have only 10BB then there's something wrong. Even just removing the first level so you start at 50/100 and then adding another level later on would make a big difference I think.

I'd certainly be up for a casino game sometime.

I had a go the other day, playing a couple of £2 rebuy satellites, but didn't get anywhere. I'd like to try again sometime, i'd love to actually play in the UKIPT.

The guy who tried to bluff me off my quads came back and built a nice big stack which I was just waiting to take from him, but then he knocks two others out with AA and the tables are moved. So somebody else will get all of his chips. :(
